Child porn possession, unlike most crimes, is intentless.
Even if someone has no knowledge of, or intent related to, the possession of child porn, it's still illegal.
A person who downloads that video unknowingly via the blockchain is probably morally in the clear, however they're very much not in the clear with the law.
- benchaney 9y agoThat is a completely valid pragmatic concern, but it is a problem with the law. Not a problem with the technology.
